[03:23] <flyback> I can't really open a web browser right now, how do I tell lubuntu to limit connections only for irc
[03:24] <flyback> so I don't destroy my cell data plan while I am in an outage
[03:24] <tsimonq2> I would recommend getting a bouncer or something and only connecting when you have the data to spare.
[03:24] <tsimonq2> Otherwise, I'm not sure Lubuntu can do that; it's probably possible poking around in iptables if you *really* wanted.
[03:24] <tsimonq2> If you want to go that route, try #ubuntu.
[03:25] <flyback> ok thx
[03:25] <tsimonq2> np
[03:26]  * flyback grumbles while on a tethered cell connection after a series of megaGUSTS ripped out 3 telephone poles in his neighborhood, ugh
[03:26] <tsimonq2> :(
[03:26] <tsimonq2> I hope things get better for you soon, flyback.
[03:28] <flyback> it will my generator kicked ass
[03:28] <flyback> we have power now but they are still repairing the rest
[03:28] <tsimonq2> hehe, good luck,
[03:29] <flyback> weird thing is it tore that pole out like 10+ yrs ago same spot
[03:29] <tsimonq2> hah
[03:29] <flyback> it's like a down hill valley used to go to a pumpstation and I guess it's a turbo charger for wind currents
[03:29] <flyback> it tore our old neighbors lines right off her house
[03:29] <flyback> this time it snapped 3 poles in a half and canucked a car
[03:30] <tsimonq2> Eek!
[03:30] <flyback> *splat*
[06:54] <Irritiable|LT> Hi.
[13:01] <Irritiable|LT> Who here is experienced with setting up a static IP address for local WAN usage between their Lubuntu box and router?
[16:13] <Irritiable|LT> Link-local only (FE08) IPv6; Machine <-> router (static IPv6 IP given)
